I believe the part number I'd need is 22947767, which is out of stock literally everywhere, including Rockauto. When I checked car-part I only found one and I wasn't thrilled with the condition. Also don't want an Escalade wheel to get the wrong color backlights, which limits the search. I'm sure one will turn up eventually, not like these vehicles were ultra-rare.
Humph. Rock Auto says 22947799 is for heated steering wheel cars but every other reference I can find for it shows it lacking the heat button. Oh well. Sorry for the miss.

I put an Escalade heated wheel in my 2011 Silverado. I did not care for the plastic part of the wheel rim. I could not find just black leather. It had a very dark brown leather that looked good in my truck. I do not remember if the lighted controls were a different color. I sold the truck last year, so I cannot check.

Thanks for the info! Good news is that spring is around the corner, meaning this is already looking like a summer project anyway. So, have some time to be patient. If fall rolls around, I might be willing to be more open to other colors to gain that functionality for next cold season.

What color are you looking for? If black, you might consider getting a gray or light brown and dye it black.

Yes, black. I may have found one from a part-out - waiting on more photos to better ascertain the condition. Good idea on gray/brown though, will definitely have to keep that option in my back pocket.

Thanks! Called a dealer and looks like every single new steering wheel in the country was purchased and have been on backorder ever since with no ETA. So probably need to keep an eye out for a gently used wheel if I’m going to make the project happen.
22947767 (black, no wood trim/heated) is the correct number, you can thank several of us members here for clearing out the last of the known new oem stock on these about 3 years ago :shrug: one may pop up on ebay from time to time usually at a mark up, if you search that part number on ebay and then save the search then ebay will email you if one happens to gets listed new or used.

Was able to hunt one down sooner than I thought! Found a really nice one out of a '14 Tahoe! I have clockspring 25966964 on order, so should have everything I need to give it a go in my '09. This wheel is actually in a little better shape than my current wheel, so that's awesome.

Picture is the harness I made for my 2011 Silverado to connect the column side of the clockspring to the under-dash Junction Block, cavity x14. This is for switch power and a ground.
I am not sure if the Tahoe has this Junction Block and an empty x14 spot for a connector.

Where did you get the connectors/ends? And which PIN numbers on x14?

Luckyyyy. I just ordered an Escalade wheel with the wood grain. Seems to be very disliked because there are alot available. It’s going in my work van anyway, I’ll probably be able to clean it better than the leather I suppose.

That was all I could find when I put one ion my 2011 Silverado. The rim is part leather ( a very nice dark brown) and the wood grain part is plastic about 25% of the rim.

Another user in the Escalade forum said the early trucks with heated steering wheels (07,08, 09 ish) did not have the power for heat run through the fuse box. You’ll know if this is the case because a fuse will not slide into the slot later trucks use for the heated wheel.

In the early trucks with the heated wheel the power wire is pink and has an integrated inline fuse. For those purchasing used wheels make sure to locate and test your heated wheel for the correct resistance prior to installing it.

The last thing you’ll want is to purchase a used wheel only to discover it doesn’t heat or only heats on 1/2 after installation. Dorman makes replacement plastic covers that are adjacent to the buttons if they’re trashed. Having the wheel off is the perfect time to replace them. Lastly, the SW control buttons on n Non BT trucks can have the button pads updated to the ones that reflect its for calls vs blank. They come in Cocoa and Black.
